I use a multiple-choice grid in a google form. How can I dieactivated all checkboxes in this form?
I started to do some tests with the Google Forms configurations and settings.
Sadly it would not be possible to remove the checkboxes as you suggest. Mainly due to the way the Forms interface works or is presented, for example:
Due to the rows and columns functionality. It might be a better idea to introduce a drop down menu if you still want to provide multiple choices, for example:
I can see an option in the future to change the style or design of the multiple choices. You can send feedback for something similar in the future here:

Or
Click on the help icon (at the bottom of the form) and select the option to report a problem to send a suggestion or feedback.

I am looking for something p-autocomplete with result having checkboxes for every row and can allow multiple rows from the result.
Please guide me with the best possible solution or an idea with I can proceed.
Cheers!!
I would recommend using multiselect that have all the feature that you want to implement in auto-complete with a checkbox.
Writing custom functionality in a component that would be riskier than using that already built-in component that has these functionalities. This will help get less error-prone components. Writing custom checkboxes in autocomplete need lots of implementation apart from functional like accessibility, arrow keys actions, etc. So go with multi-select.
So for auto-complete in multi-select component use can use the filter property.

Hopefully this won't be too much of an opinion question, if it is, I apologize:
I presented an idea to the UI lead for our project. I am a developer and mainly handle server-side coding, but occasionally dabble in the UI. There is a section on our webpage where the users are only allowed to select one option from a group of options (in our case, brands, when filtering search results). From this group of options, the user may only select 1. That is, if you select 1, any other selected choice is unchecked.
The UI developer implemented these brand choices as checkboxes, and I suggested that they be implemented as radio buttons, since only 1 can be selected from the group at a time.
For some reason, I always associated checkboxes with multiple choices allowed (usually), and radio buttons were used for things that were mutually exclusive, only 1 could be chosen.
Is there any UI/UX design standards or conventions that supports my stance, or am I wrong, is this simply a preference? The UI designer seemed to think that I was way off base in my suggestion.
In my opinion none of the approach is wrong, in fact any of both can be used since we ultimately need to allow user select only one option out of all BUT it all comes down to the degree of customisation and possibility of extensions. In fact 3rd approach could also be using dropdown.
But if I had to choose one of these 3 approach, I would go for the Checkbox approach because of following reasons:
It gives freedom to change. Let's consider in case if in future we ever need to allow user choosing multiple options, checkbox wouldn't need to be replaced. In fact one filter component can be made and it can take option if we need to choose one or multiple and behave accordingly.
Users are familiar with checkbox. Let's admit this we all learn from the leaders, apps like Amazon allow filter through checkbox and users are familiar with that pattern.
In case of radio button the possibility of customisation does lack while I discourage using the dropdown (3rd approach I mentioned above) as user won't be able to see all the options in case of dropdown.
I am not quite familiar with the google docs form. My sister requests to make her multiple choice options in her survey form appear horizontal just like this form (see image below)
Now my question is, how can I make horizontal multiple choice options? If it is done with a script/markup language it's fine for me.
choose linear scale instead of multiple choice
after that press preview and you will get the request result
I have multiple html forms on a page and noticed that if the user is tabbing between form elements they can also end up tabbing between forms which I don't want to happen.
I've read the answer about forms that are not being used given here:
Multiple forms on one HTML page: how to restrict tabbing to a single form?
I'm wondering if there is now a better way to keep form elements knowingly grouped together y the browser so that tabbing will loop between elements within the same form only. One would think the use of the form tag would suffice but clearly this was something that went over the head of those browser vendors we all know and love.
Edit: This is for a webapp not a desktop website.
You probably found a solution already but hope it will help others.
I had similar problem and created tiny jQueryUI plugin that limits fields that TAB affects. you use it simply:
$(".someGroup").tabGuard();
and that will make tab iterate over fields inside of .someGroup wrapper. This way you can group various forms on a page and the one in focus will keep iterating on TAB or Shift+TAB if that makes sense. Find it here:

I hope someone will find it useful.
We're trying to show checkboxes for the 700+/- options that the user has. It's to map users to accounts, for all intents and purposes.
The checkboxes start runing extremely slow under Internet Explorer 8. Firefox, Opera, Safari, etc. run like a champ without issue.
Does anyone have a better, faster, and cleaner method (other than checkboxes) to utilize for this?
We wound up going back to the users and showing them the fact that the page rendered like crap, and ultimately, they said "That's not a problem"! So, we're stuck with the 2,100+/- controls :/
There are several options:
Use a select control. Consider using two select controls, and copying the selected values from one control to the other. This is more usable than a large multi-select.
Split your form into multiple, smaller pages.
Allow the user to complete a portion of the form, and load the additional parts via AJAX as needed.

I think you should Page your data in a table with multiple page. 700 checkboxes is a UI-Smell from my point of view.
Even if is feasible in the other browsers, from the point of view of user friendliness it would be a nightmare.
One possible solution:
1.- Instead of checkboxes use to select lists, in the left one put all the available one, in the right the ones selected
2.- Categorize and/or divide in multiple steps
3.- Add a addAll and removeAll buttons for each page/category
Why dont you use 10 user controls with jQuery in it and render all the controls at pipe line. This way its not too much load at the server side and your controls will be async with each other.
Just my cents on it..
